Hectorp, not a spoof, I met up with Bill Murphy in London about four years ago and although he has a tendency to get a bit over exited his accusations/argument on the gold cartel are sound imho. What I fail to understand is why so much controversy exists over his accusation as control of currencies by all central banks is normal practise - so what makes gold any different other than it's the overall barometer!
Gordon Brown selling the UK's reserves along with trying desperately to get the IMF to dump it's reserves says it all in my opinion of whats going on in the background. Very difficult for Murphy to get accross a complicated issue in just a few minutes of airtime. It's not if it blows up it's a case of when, could be tommorow, could be years away.................................a lot of smoke and mirrors to navigate through before the truth of the situation is revealed.
